THE MAIN SCHOOL

At MK Dance, our main school provides a clear, supportive pathway for children from age 4 upwards who wish to develop their dance training in a structured and inspiring environment. Pupils are offered high-quality tuition in ballet, tap, and modern, following internationally recognised syllabuses that support both personal development and technical excellence.

 

Whether a child dances for enjoyment, confidence, or with aspirations for vocational training, every pupil is encouraged to reach their full potential.​ Our Main School proudly follows the syllabuses of:

​

Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) - Ballet

Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD) - Tap & Modern

​

These syllabuses provide a clear progression route from Primary levels through to Vocational grades, allowing pupils to develop strong technical foundations while working towards graded examinations. Exams are optional but encouraged, helping pupils to build confidence and resilience, develop discipline and focus, work towards achievable goals and gain internationally recognised qualifications. MK Dance is proud to maintain a 100% exam success rate across the school.​ Pupils can train in one or multiple styles, with classes carefully structured to be age-appropriate, progressive, and supportive.
